Finite States Methodology

Overview
Finite States solves any project challenge armed with a proven methodology to compliment our human and technical assets. Our approach focuses upon informed vision, organized blueprinting, efficient development, effective implementation, technology transfer and superior maintenance. We recognize that one process or solutions does not fit all, so we utilize the Finite States PROJECT METHODOLOGY as a guide, not a doctrine. Its effectiveness requires the commitment of all parties involved - human interactions that can never be replaced by technology.

Shared Vision
At Finite States, we believe that a successful project is a collaborative effort between all parties. We must have a shared vision of project tasks and what defines success. We know that it is important to follow a process while remaining flexible to solve unanticipated situations that arise. Finite States projects are also held to a standard of rapid development since speed and agility are paramount to any leader.

Finite States Methodology Phases:-

Detailed Planning Phase

At the commencement of the project, Finite States will have meetings with the Project Owner and his team from the client's side and all the departments within the client organization, who have a stake in the project.

The Detailed Planning Phase will identify all internal organizational dependencies and the deliverables expected from each group identified as integral to the project.

This phase also helps in developing a shared vision that gets the buy in, from various departments that are involved.

Detailed Requirements Phase

Interviews and Research- Gain a detailed understanding of the project.

Strategic Decisions-Team leaders review scenarios and verify that the correct problem to solve has been identified.

Develop per-module and per-page functional specifications.

Develop Use Cases and finalize the project plan.

Design and Analysis Phase

Architecture of Infrastructure - Acquire and install necessary tools, establish procedures and standards, and configure the software development and operational environments.
